Jesus' trial was brought on by the High Priests. Jesus had broken no Roman laws, but because of the pressure from the High Priests and the political ramifications to Pilot and Herod, they gave in. They knew that there was the chance for riots if they did not do what the religious leaders wanted and that could mean losing their high positions in government. The trial was illegal, as was the sentence, because, as Pilate himself acknowledged 'I find no fault in this man' (Luke 23:4). Also, the Jews brought a religious charge of blasphemy against Jesus which was not punishable under Roman law. There was nothing that Jesus could be either charged or tried on, and most certainly not executed for.

Were the apostles John and Paul in attendance at the trial of Jesus?

According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul spent his childhood in Jerusalem, learning under the famous Gamaliel I, so, on that evidence, he could have been at the trial of Jesus. However, scholars say that there is no evidence in any of the epistles that he was in Jerusalem during the lifetime of Jesus, in which case he could not have been present at the trial. Certainly, Paul never mentions having seen Jesus before his crucifixion. The gospels do not mention John as in attendance at the trial of Jesus. .
